In order to deploy an instance of a Rails application on AWS OpsWorks, I have to define an SSH key for the instance. I followed the steps provided in the help page: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/opsworks/latest/userguide/workinginstances-ssh.html#workinginstances-ssh-third
- I created the key pair and downloaded the
.pem
file: AWSRails.pem - I've changed the
chmod
of the file to 600 - In the stack page, I added the default SSH key to the previously created one (step 1)
- In the Instance page, I get the public DNS name: ec2-54-72-154-78.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com
- In the same page, I get the Operating system: Amazon Linux
In the terminal, I attempted to establish a ssh connection to the instance:
ssh -v -i ~/Downloads/AWSRails.pem [email protected]
I had the following output:

Reading the debug message, the connexion was established and everything works fine, until publickey authentication method. I tried many of the same issues found on StackOverflow, but none worked.
Do you have any idea? Thanks.
Permission denied (publickey)
. But I can access to the remote AWS instance with SSH. – htaidirt
